Signal words are used in this manual and apply to hazards or unsafe practices which could result in 
personal injury or property damage. See the information below for definitions of the signal words.

The best way to avoid problems related to pressure sores is to understand their causes and your role in 

a skin management program. Your therapist and physician should be consulted if you have questions 

regarding individual limitations and needs.
All cushions should be selected carefully. Working with your therapist and physician is the best way to 

assure that a cushion choice matches your individual needs. As the needs of the individual become more 

complex, cushion evaluation becomes more important.

The Invacare Matrx Flo-tech cushion uses a 

combination of molded foam and dual layer fluid 

sacs to provide the highest level of skin protection 

for users with high risk of skin breakdown.

The fluid sac utilizes a unique dual-layer fluid 

design in the ishcial/sacral areas to help prevent 

bottoming out.

The inner liner is moisture resistant to protect 

the foam. The outer cover is water resistant and 

breathable. Regular cleaning and inspection of the 

covers is recommended. Refer to Care and
